I have enjoyed countless of hands of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have bet on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent a lot of funds at twenty-one. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the house.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have wagered on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this tactic or beat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial wager again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original bet on the table. If I win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the action back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Paris a number of years back with $750 after 60 mins using this method! And a couple of months ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the runs you see wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 game.
Bet 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the first five dollar wager
Bet 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $10
Bet $10
Take $10 paid to you, leave the initial ten dollar wager
Wager 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Wager $20
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 20 dollar wager
Bet twenty dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the initial $40 wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 80 dollar wager
Wager $80
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $160 wager
If you left at this point you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!
It is iffy to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can’t alter and drop your bet or the end result will not be the same.
